 Elon Musk’s Journey to Mars     My name is Elon Musk and I helped create PayPal and then Tesla.” NASA turns to the private sector to resupply the International Space Station. “I recently helped create the SpaceX. The reason I got into this space exploration was that it didn’t seem to me that we’ve been making the progress that we should make given the fact that we could get to the moon in 1969.

THE VERB : Transitive and Intransitive

 THE VERB 

A Verb are the action words in a sentence that describes what subject is doing . 

A Verb may tell us :

  •  What a person or thing does ; as,
             Hari laughs.
             The clock strikes.

  • What is done to a person or thing ; as,
             Hari is shocked.
             The window is broken.
  • What a person or thing is ; as,
             The cat is dead.
             Glass is brittle.

      Examples : 

  • The girls were singing.
  • I have learnt my lessons.
  • He is running.

KINDS : TRANSITIVE & INTRANSITIVE VERBS


* Transitive Verbs : 

A Transitive Verb is one that makes a complete sense if it exerts its action on an object.

Example : 

  • The girls carry water to their village.
  • She loves rainbow.

* Intransitive Verbs : 

An Intransitive Verb is one that doesn't make a complete sense.

Example : 

  • They jumped.
  • The dog ran.


How To Identify a Transitive Verb ?

Transitive Verb are not just verbs that can take an object ; they demand objects. Without an object to affect , the sentence that a transitive inhabits will not seem complete.

Example : 
  • Please bring coffee.
In this sentence , the verb 'bring' is transitive  ; its object is coffee, the thing that is being brought .
Without an object , a verb cannot function.

  • Sia threw the ball.
  • Liya conveyed the message.



How To Identify an Intransitive Verb ? 

An Intransitive Verb is the opposite of the Transitive Verb , It doesn't require an object to act upon. 

Example :  
  • They jumped. 
  • The dog ran.
  • She sang.
  • A light was shining.
None of these sentences require an object for the sentence to make a complete sense.
